Default I need help!

Could someone who is TRULY a Buckeye fanatic give me the exact paints they use when doing the Buckeyes. No RaiderMike Paints. I would appreciate if you provide picks to back it up.

Love the Game, Support the Hobby

when painting archie for the first customizing contest, i used red gore as a base and blood red dry brushed as a highlite. chainmail for the helmet. fortress grey as a base for the pants, graveyard earth as a wash for the shadows and skull white drybrushed as a highlite. by the way, these are all games workshop colors.
if you are not into doing all of the shadows and highlites, mix the red gore and blood red 50/50, and do the same with the fortress grey and the white. it is, however, important to use the graveyard earth wash. just add around 75% water to 25% paint, mix thouroughly and brush right over top of the painted pants. this will give the slightly "dirty" look that the bucks grey has. here's the proof.
